JERRY FISH
He’s one of Ireland’s most enigmatic and entertaining performers to the point where the Electric Picnic have now afforded him his own stage. An indie legend and ringmaster of exceptional renown, Jerry Fish has evolved into a showman extraordinaire, capturing the hearts and minds of audiences all over with his now legendary live shows, a unique live theatrical experience that dissolves all boundaries between performer and audience. Jerry Fish blasted onto the Music Scene in the 1990’s touring the globe as frontman of alternative rock outfit An Emotional Fish, the band who gave us the indie rock anthem “Celebrate” These days the name Jerry Fish is synonymous with Festivals, Carnival Sideshow, Circus and Theatre. Mr. Fish’s genre bending and idiosyncratic style of entertainment has made him a household name within the Irish Music industry. With two Platinum selling solo albums, an MTV award and IRMA Music Award, and a reputation as a supreme and spectacular showman. Be sure not to miss Jerry’s now legendary midnight picnic show and end of the world parties.
